Sharp has unveiled a new smartphone, dubbed as Sharp Aquos ZETA SH-03G. It will be available in Japan through the NTT DoCoMo carrier. However, there are no pricing details yet.
The Sharp Aquos ZETA SH-03G is shorter than a Galaxy S6 yet features a 5.5″ display due to Sharp’s EDGEST design platform. The 1080p screen is built with Sharp’s homebrew IGZO technology that doesn’t push the refresh rate when the display shows still images, so the power draw is pretty minimal compared to other technologies; the 3000 mAh battery is enough for two days once fully charged.
In terms of specs, the Sharp Aquos ZETA SH-03G is equipped with the newest Qualcomm Snapdragon 810 processor and 3GB of RAM, alongside 32 GB of internal storage. On the back, there is a 13 MP camera with OIS, wide f/1.9 aperture, and GR certified lens by Ricoh, which is fixed. The Sharp also claims a record-setting slow-mo video out of this camera, with 480p done at 210 fps and interpolated to 2100 fps, which lets you slow down the typical 30 fps footage 70 times.
There is also a DTS Dolby surround sound, a fingerprint scanner, and LED lights. It runs Android 5.0 Lollipop OS out of the box. The phone is waterproof too. It comes in black, white, and red variant colors. The smartphone measures 141 x 76 x 8.3 mm, and weight is 150 gms.
